    I saw the Dodgers at the Coliseum in the late fifties and early sixties. It was built for the Olympics in 1932 and served as the Dodgers' temporary (and very awkward ) ball field when the Dodgers moved from Brooklyn in the late fifties. Dodger Stadium opened in 1962. The distance from home plate to the left field fence at the Coliseum was under 300 feet and so they attached a 25-foot screen to the fence to make it more difficult to hit home runs. Wally Moon of the Dodgers became adept at lofting balls over the screen for homers; they were soon nicknamed "Moon Shots." My first glove as a kid was labeled a "Johnny Logan," the name of the Braves infielder who was injured in the above clip.

      What middle infielders used to do to combat this move at the time was to throw sidearm to force the runner to get down or he’d get hit in the face. In this situation the game was too important to risk an error by burying the runner in the chops.
      There’s nothing wrong with a hard slide or even a rolling block (see Hal McRae in 1977 ALCS) but this was brutal. Burdette should’ve beaned him next time up.
      An interesting side note to this game was Vin Scully got so excited when the winning run scored he said “We’re off to Chicago!” Scully was legendary for his composure and objectivity but he let his hair down when the Dodgers won.

    I was 9 years old. I grew up in Southern California and my dad would take us to the Coliseum to watch the Dodger games. I remember the big screen in left field with Moon hitting the "Moon Shot" over the screen. Sometimes the Dodgers would 70,000 for games and drew around 89,000 against the White Sox in the World Series. I can still remember the lineup: 1-Jim Gilliam, 3B, 2-Charlie Neal, 2B, 3-Wally Moon-LF, 4-Duke Snider, CF, 5-Gil Hodges, 1B, 6-Carl Furillo, RF (or Don Demeter), 7-John Roseboro, C, 8-Maury Wills, SS, 9-Pitcher. (Drysdale, Koufax, Stan Williams, Roger Craig, etc.). I still have a World Series program from 1959. (I can even remember the White Sox lineup: 1-Luis Aparicio, SS, 2-Nellie Fox, 2B, 3-Jim Landis, CF, 4-Ted Kluzewski, 1B, 5-Jim Rivera, RF, 6-Al Smith, LF, 7-Sherm Lollar, C, 8--Bubba Phillips, 3B, 9-Pitcher (Early Wynn, , Billy Pierce, Dick Donovan, etc.

    The Dodgers and Braves played this playoff because they ended the regular season tied for first place in the NL; there were no divisions in either league then. Second place meant "see you next year." This Dodgers team later won the World Series over the Chicago White Sox.

    Six years later in September 1965 the Braves would play their last game representing Milwaukee at Chavez Ravine before packing up the tepee and moving to Atlanta. With two out in the top of the 9th and a Brave runner on first (I think it was Don Dillard) a ground ball way hit to Dodger shortstop Maury Wills behind second base and he threw the ball to first but hit Dillard square in the forehead knocking him out cold. The Dodger second baseman picked up the ball and tagged the unconscious Dillard out and that was the ignoble end of the Braves 13 year run in Milwaukee. Five years later Bud Selig bought the Seattle Pilots and the Brewers were born. They also had trouble with Los Angeles as the Angels shellacked them 12-0 in their first game.

Remember in the 70s and 80s when players used to grab and adjust their crotch area? I assume that was because the polyester unis were too tight back then. Today, they're baggie and you don't see players adjusting themselves anymore. 😊

    We went to the LA Coliseum many times when the Dodgers played there after they left Brooklyn and in my opinion is was an awful place to play baseball; 251 feet down the LF line with a 42 foot high screen. Watching the Rams and USC was far more enjoyable at the Coliseum than baseball. I did get hooked on Dodger Dogs.

      @@michaelleroy9281 The LA dodgers could have played at Wrigley Field in South Central LA, but it only held 22,000 seats. There was talk about expanding seating in Wrigley Field, but it was easier to kick out a community living in Chavez Ravine to build what is now the third oldest field in MLB. Disclaimer I'm a SF Giant fan and hate the Dodgers and what they did to the Chavez Ravine community.

      @@dan1oval Expanding the AAA ballpark wouldn't have been anything more than a temporary fix anyway. And it's questionable how many more seats they could shoehorn in there. At least they chose a site that had long-term viability & didn't make fans feel like they were on an Arctic expedition like in Candlestick.

      Most of those guys were heavy smokers, didn't use sunscreen, and didn't have the healthiest diets. All of that affected their skin and made them look older. This was typical of most of the mid-century American adult population. Life expectancy was considerably shorter back then, as well.

The also put up a 50 foot screen to prevent really cheap homers .... are they comparing that to the Great Wall of China? Or is it because the short wall still yielded "cheap Chinese" homers? Whatever it is, I've never heard it referred to as the "Chinese" wall before or since.
